The role of Senior Service Delivery Manager

As a Senior Service Delivery Manager, you’ll take ownership of a portfolio of strategic customers, building strong relationships and becoming a trusted partner who understands their business, priorities and longer-term goals. You’ll combine excellent service delivery with a commercial mindset, looking beyond the immediate request to identify opportunities where Columbus can add greater value. Working across our Microsoft Dynamics 365 and wider technology offering, you’ll help shape customer roadmaps, navigate challenges and ensure we’re continually developing the relationship, not simply delivering a service.

We continue to offer our customers on-site consultancy time if requested, so flexibility around travel and overnight stays is expected, depending on the project requirements. Onsite time is planned ahead of time, within 2-week blocks, so you know well in advance where you will be working.

We encourage those in customer-facing roles to aim to come into the office at least once a month, and also for team meetings and client meetings; however, you can work from Nottingham HQ or any Cubo office regularly if you prefer, whichever suits you.
